 Hallo again

This one was eager to suck my finger. It did so yesterday, 23rd of May, in Southern Germany, about 800 m high. I only got a very bad "usual photo" from above, but reasonable good ones from side and front. Is it Tachina fera?

Thanks for your help.

 Might be ... it's certainly a Tachina but we need Theo to rule out magnicornis etc. Smile

Some flies preserved in ethanol and then pinned often get the eyes sunken, how can this be avoided? Best answer: I usually keep alcohol-collected material in alcohol

Yes, dipterologists from far abroad, please buy your copy at veldshop. Stamps will be expensive, but he, the book is unreasonably cheap Smile
